• All the form fields do not paste from one file to another

  I use Adobe Acrobat DC on OS 10.10.3.

  I have a .pdf file containing form fields set up on what I want to use it as a 'model '.

  One machine I can copy the form fields and put in a new .pdf file and it works fine, but on any other machine, I tried it on it is not. On the other machines when I copy the fields of the form about 75 percent of stick them in the new .pdf.

  Is there a setting/preference on what I should check or would be - something else causing this problem?

  Thank you very much for the help.

  Replacing the old pages with the new in Acrobat is the standard way to do what you want. The fields of forms, links, code, bookmarks, comments, page/document, metadata, etc. are preserved.

  Hello.

  I guess that these areas use the option 'allow formatting of the rich text.

  Thus, it is not Properties: aspect which resulted in implementing in the form of text, thetext in the form field"' bar (CTRL-E or CMD-E).

  Uncheck the option 'Allow rich text formatting' to return to this behavior.

• Adjust the text in the form field

  How do you shrink to fit the text in the form field when you fill in a document?

  I use reader XI.

  This document is a form of Government and a protection on it, if it's important.

  It is mainly for the purpose of printing and using the paper document. When you print from the field cut the text and it is impossible to read the entirty of the field.

  Thank you

  You can do that with the Reader. You need Acrobat, please try the free trial http://www.adobe.com/in/products/acrobat.html

• Forms to fill out and Distribution: to flatten author text but not the form fields

  OK people, first time posting on this forum, but certainly not my first time looking for answers!  I was quite managed with other issues if I think I myself stumped on this one.

  I created the form fillable 'generic' I'm going to use to distribute to various contacts for some upcoming projects that we will participate in.  Because each project will be different, instead of having to create a new form every time, I hope that with my base model form I can enter various information with the type writing tool and somehow to protect this information to be edit/delete while allowing my contacts to enter their information in the form fields.

  I tried to apply the different variants of security features, but the downside of this is that it does not "distribute" my form so that it can be track with Adobe Tracker.  The only way I can successfully distribute this form for the masses and track responses is if all the security settings of the document are disabled.

  I hope that this logic all how I explain it.  Because the information (not the form fields) on the document sent to the changes each week, I was hoping there would be one easier way other than creating a form to complete for each new.  I'm not an expert of Actions, but it would be possible to create an Action that would "flatten" the text of the type writer only?  That would at least prevent third parties to manipulate or remove information that I placed on the document.

  This free tool based on JavaScript for Acrobat is what you need: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

  The typewriter tool creates a type of text box, so that you would select just this box to flatten.

• Text is not in the form field

  «The text in the form field does not show you what you type in until you move to the next field.» If you feel as if nothing is being filled. »

  I am not able to reproduce this behavior. Is there a setting of preference or other setting that would cause this behavior?

• StructCount bug when deleting a key of the FORM field

  Help, please.  I can't understand what I'm doing wrong.

  When I try to remove a key from the FORM field, the StructCount to the extent of the FORM remains unchanged, even if the key doesn't seem to be within the scope of the FORM any longer.  This is not the case when I create a struct in the scope of VARIABLES.  I enclose the code I used to test this.

  Is this a bug with ColdFusion?  Is there a fix / patch for this?  I use Coldfusion Enterprise version 8,0,0,176276.

  Unfortunately, I don't think you can avoid it as it seems to be a problem with the underlying FormScope class.  You could wrap your alternative 'counting' code in a cffunction.  Which would keep at least the logic in one place:

• Replace the text in the form field with javascript

  Hello

  I am trying to replace an existing text in a form field, if a user enters a number.  For example, during the validation of required fields, Adobe does not accept "0" as a valid entry.  My users regularly enter '0', and it must be valid.  I noticed that if you enter "0.001 ', he admits that, but still the poster ' 0.00' (I'm only show 2 decimal places, so it's OK)."

  My problem is that I can not find the syntax to have the ' 0.00' replaced by a "0.001' by the system."

  I would be very happy for any input!

  Thank you!

  Try the following script:

  var requiredFields = [], error = "";
  
  for (var i = 0; i < numFields; i++) {
  
      var fName = getNthFieldName(i);
      var f = getField(fName);
  
      if (f.type !== "button" && f.required && !f.valueAsString) {
          requiredFields.push(fName);
          error += fName + "\r";
      }
  }
  
  if (error) {
      app.alert("Please complete the following fields: \r\r" + error, 3);
      getField(requiredFields[0]).setFocus();
  } else {
      print();
  }

• Model for the form field option is not found

  Hello - when I tested the echosign function I was able to implement a model of form field that I could then apply to a future document so that I didn't have to recreate all the fields if I replaced a page or change the text under.  Now I am an annual subscriber, I don't think this feature.  Any ideas?

  Hello Emily,.

  The trial version does not have the ability to create the layer of form field model and if you went to the same enterprise-level plan, then the feature would still be there, but if you upgraded your account to 'Send for Signature', then he has that.

• How to keep the form fields empty with calculated fields

  I am to convert Excel files to Adobe forms with calculated fields.  I use the following if statement to keep the empty fields until the entry is made.

  var v1 = + getField("LengthRisersToday.1").value;

  var v2 = + getField("LengthRisersToDate.0").value;

  If (v1! == 0) {}

  var sum = v1 + v2;

  Event.Value = sum;

  } else {event.value = ";}}

  This does not work if someone from 0 in the field "today."  This is sometimes necessary in this form, as the other fields must be filled and a riser is not always added.

  This form consists of several lines and inscriptions are made there is a running total in column "on this day".

  
  

  
  

  So you say that a result no one is valid and that you want to delete a result of zero only if the LengthRisersToday field is empty? If so, the script can be replaced by:

  var s1 = getField("LengthRisersToday.1").valueAsString;

  var v2 = + getField("LengthRisersToDate.0").value;

  If {(s1)

  var sum = s1 + v2;

  Event.Value = sum;

  } else {}

  Event.Value = "";

  }

• The zeros that is hidden in the form field?

  I created a spreadsheet with calculations and zeros appear in the blank lines.  Could move only with this script:

  If the value is zero replace with string NULL

  if(Event.Value == 0) event.value = "";

  My question now...  There are moments where the equation will be 0.  You wonder how I print?
  Field1c-Field1g = Field1h
  I c field - field g is equivalent to h field

  Sometimes, this answer will be 0, and I need to print the field.
  The form has been implemented in Acrobat pro X on a mac.
  Thanks for your help!

  You can replace your script running (probably Validate) with the following:

  (function () {
  
      // Get the input values, as strings
      var v1 = getField("Field1c").valueAsString;
      var v2 = getField("Field1g").valueAsString;
  
      // Blank this field unless both fields are not blank
      if (!(v1 && v2)) {
          event.value = "";
      }
  
  })();
  

  But this raises the question of what should happen if a field is blank, but the other is not? It would probably be best to handle all this with a custom instead calculation script.

• Deactivation of the borders on the form fields for printing

  Is it possible to disable the borders (or choose the color of 'None') on form fields when you print a form?  I had rather the only the data, but not the border areas, print.

  I had a quick glance to the XML source and I suspect it's possible, but I am a newbie of LC.

  Hello

  No problem! I'm just going through a number of things (you might already have these sorted, so please forgive me, but just in case where).

  You don't need to go near the Source XML, which is often (if at all). Sometimes, it is convenient if you want to change multiple occurrences of a string (with find and replace).

  First set up your work space, something like below.

  

  You need to open the panels (layout, object, border, police, paragraph hierarchy, Script Editor, etc.).

  I've implemented a "Recipientname" field and insert the script of pre-press. Note the drop-down menu events you can choose from. Also note that you can choose between two languages Javascript and Formcalc.

  

  It's the Script Editor, it is a very important interface, where you can insert the script to your form objects. You can access from the menu of the window (or by clicking Ctrl + Shift + F5). When you opened it, drag the lower bar to make a decent size to view and edit the script.

  The same approach is used to put the 'visible' script in the postPrint event.

  All this is done from the main creation of LC mode, without touching the XML source itself. What you're trying to achieve here requires access to the deep level of the object properties. For the 'normal' for an object script, you shouldn't have the fully resolved name. For example:

  recipientName.rawValue = "Niall";

  I recommend that you consider carefully where you place the script (in which event), the help file, forums and talk about books on this topic in detail.

  

  One last point, when you expand your form (such as one that has a dynamic content), then you must save your file to PDF dynamic. You can set in the properties of the form / default settings (on the file menu) dialog. Otherwise the dynamic content won't work.

  For what is is worth, I'll upload the PDF file with the only object inside. It may take a little time to pass through. If you use this technique, remember that the properties of the user interface of the various objects are accessible using different layouts. See the help file:

  

  Hope this helps,

  Niall

• Is there a way to develop the form fields dynamically?

  I have a form of a table with a column that can contain long text and sometimes it is difficult to read.
  
  I want to create the form so that when the text content of the field is too big, I have a way to develop the field (then), so that I can easily read the text content in there.
  
  Any help is appreciated
  
  Thank you

  Fabio,
  TextField does not exist in HTML, text fields are tags html INPUT type 'text '.

  In this case, you can replace "textarea" with "entry" in the css selector.

• pre-non-empty with the resource in the form field id

  Hello

  What is the most effective way to pre-fill a form field in the console design with the resource id that we are provisioning?

  Thanks for your help already!

  You can write the code that get the key of the process as an argument instance and returns the resource id. I don't remember the STANDARD adapter for it.
